Synthesis

Methdilazine synthesis:[1] R. F. Feldkamp and Y. H. Wu; Mead Johnson & Company; U.S. Patent 2,945,855 (1960).
gollark: It may have originally been thought up for some eugenics-y purpose, I don't know, but that does not invalidate it.
gollark: So... general reasoning tests are... racially biased?
